THE MODEL 7010SB ELECTRONIC SCALE

The model 7010SB electronic scale is a user friendly ten pound / 5000 gram

scale designed to to assist the operator in calculating the mailing costs of letters

and parcels for selected USPS classes of mail.

UNPACKING YOUR SCALE

Carefully unpack and inspect the shipping container for evidence of shipping

damage. If such evidence is discovered, stop unpacking and immediately notify

the shipper to arrange to have the shipment inspected by an authorized

representative. All damages must be promptly filed with the shipper.

1. Open the box and carefully remove the scale from the shipping carton (save

the shipping carton for future use).

2. Place the scale on a flat level surface free from vibration.

3. Remove the AC adapter and the RS-232 interface cable from the packaging

material.

4. Before using your scale please plug the scale into a power outlet and turn on

the scale for 10 minutes. This will allow the scale to warm-up and ensure

accurate weighing.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY

Use 9V ALKALINE BATTERY ONLY

No other type provides a suitable power output. The manufacturer

recommends Duracell MN1604 or Ever-Ready Gold Seal 6LF22.

To fit the battery, remove the cover on the underside

of the scale and push the connector firmly onto the

battery terminals. Refit the cover.

FUNCTION KEYS

The Model 7010SB has three function keys to operate the scale. The

ON(TARE), OFF, and lb-oz/ grams keys.

ON (TARE) KEY:

The ON key performs two functions. First it applies power to the scale; second it

tares the weight on the scale to zero. To use the “tare” feature:

1. Place an empty container on the weighing platform.

2. Press the ON key. Even though the container weight is on the weighing

platform, the scale will display zero weight.

3. When an item is placed on the container, the scale only displays the weight

of the item, not the weight of the container.

4. To reset the scale for no tare, remove the container and its contents from

the weighing platform. Press the OFF key, then the ON key to reset the

scale to zero weight.

(The tare function will work over the full weighing range of the scale but will not

extend the overall capacity of the scale.)

Important Note: It is recommended to press the “OFF key” then the “ON

key” before placing an item on the scale. This will help ensure accurate

weight readings.

OFF KEY:

This key turns off the power to the scale.

LB-OZ/ GRAMS:

The lb-oz grams key is to switch between weighing lb-oz and grams, it is also

used for entering into the calibration mode.

ZERO THE SCALE:

The proper method of zeroing the scale is to press the “OFF” key, then turn the

scale back on by pressing the “ON” key.

SLEEP MODE:

The default setting for sleep mode is Off ( SLP0). If there is no activity, the scale

will turn itself off after 30 seconds The sleep mode can be configured to On

(SLP1) via software.

Error Conditions – Shown in the scales display

Below are the error conditions that may appear on the scale display.

“- - - -“ Under Capacity

When the scale weight is below zero the scale will display all dashes (----) and

transmit a status for this condition. This situation will likely occur after the use of

tare when the tare weight is removed. To clear this indication, press the OFF

key, then the ON key and the scale will re-zero.

“Err” Over Capacity -

When the scale is in an overload condition the scale will also display “OvEr” and

transmit a status for this condition. In this case the weight applied to the scale is

above the 10-pound limit; remove the weight from the scale to clear this

indication.

“Lo” Low Battery-

When “Lo” is displayed replace the battery.

ErrL, ErrH, 8888:

The scale is damaged. If within warranty, return the scale to the factory.

SCALE CALIBRATION INSTRUCTIONS

Periodically your scale may require calibration to ensure proper weighing. You

will need a 10-pound weight to calibrate the scale. Scale calibration is

accomplished, when needed, by the following instructions:

Function Scale Response

1. Remove all weight from the scale

2. Press and hold the “ON/TARE” key and

press the “lb-oz/grams” key once . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . “SLP0/SLP1”

3. Press the “ON/TARE” once to accept the

sleep mode setting and enter into calibration mode. . . .”64XX – 10XXX”

4. Press the “ON/TARE” key once

to zero the scale. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .“0”

5. Place 10 lbs on the scale . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ..“8,9XX - 10,000”

6. Press “ON/TARE” key once

To accept calibration weight . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .“CAL” then * “Err”

7. Press the “OFF” key to exit calibration mode.

8. Remove the weight from the scale, press the “ON/TARE” key to continue the

normal weighing mode.

* Note: The “Err” displayed after completing calibration does not indicate a

calibration error. Since, the scale only weighs up-to 9 lbs. 15.5 oz., the ten

pounds on the scale causes the displayed message “Err”.
